Knowing how far in advance things book up- I'm looking for somewhere to go for next Christmas in 2014. My requirements are:As close to Key West as possibleSupports big rigs (42' fifth wheel + crew cab/long bed truck)Has full hookups (water, electric, and sewer)Has a poolHas close access to swimming (beach, ocean, etc.)Allows campfiresRoomy and not packed like sardinesIf it wasn't for the "Allows campfires", Bluewater Key would be my ideal spot.I'm also a Thousand Trails member, but the Sunshine Key Resort doesn't seem to get real good reviews. And apparently being a big rig can be tricky there. Plus, it's a bit further north than I wanted to be.I'm not nor have I retired from any armed services.Ideas?

knights key, Jolly Roger, 2 state parks.

Ideas - Eliminate some of your requirements.

Knights Key is out- no campfires.From a phone call, so is Jolly Roger - "no wood burning".The Sugarloaf KOA sells firewood, so it seems like they should allow them.

Not sure about allowing camp fires but Bluewater Key RV Resort looks like it's as close to meeting your requirements as any. Only 10 miles from Key West. Tim

Looking for Key West, big rig, full hookups + campfires

LOL! True that. I'm on the waitlist for both .com and .net groups. We'll see what comes up so that we get a space. I'll be sad if we don't!

I want this to be me:

Bahia Honda state park does not have fire pits. I guess you could have a fire in the raised waist height grills.

No but with bahia honda and curry hammock, you can bring your own firepit as long as the fire isn't 'on the ground'. we did it with no issues,

All grills were to be at least 6 foot from the closest part of any Tiki...Just show your in -laws all the pictures of the campground , they will be all in...

Charcoal is good at Bluewater. You just have to set up the grill outside the tiki.
